ATM Troubleshooting


This page describes in a step by step manner what to do if connections don't work as they should. If the first test fails proceed with the next step and so on. Information about the Host configurations can be found in the ICSI Host table.

  1. Check the connection using the ping command. This checks the end to end connectivity.
  2. Check the pvc tables of the host using pvcarp -a on an Interphase workstation or atmarp -a on a workstation with a Fore adapter. If there is no entry for the destination host, set up a pvc and check the connection again using the ping command.
  3. To check the switch you can use several tools. Before you can use these tools you have to rlogin at icsib8, redirect the display and type this at the commandline or include it in your cshrc file.


If you have questions about the ATM configuration at ICSI please contact Rolf Sigle or Rainer Storn
